There is a race condition vulnerability on Huawei Honor V10 smartphones versions earlier than Berkeley-AL20 9.0.0.156(C00E156R2P14T8), Honor 10 smartphones versions earlier than Columbia-AL10B 9.0.0.156(C00E156R1P20T8) and Honor Play smartphones versions earlier than Cornell-AL00A 9.0.0.156(C00E156R1P13T8). An attacker tricks the user into installing a malicious application, which makes multiple processes to operate the same variate at the same time. Successful exploit could cause execution of malicious code.


Security Impact Summary

This vulnerability carries a HIGH severity rating with a CVSS v3.1 score of 7.0, requiring local system access to exploit but requires specific conditions to be met though user interaction is required and does not require pre-existing privileges . The vulnerability impacts confidentiality (data exposure), integrity (unauthorized modifications), and availability (service disruption) for affected systems. Impacting 6 products from huawei, from huawei, from huawei and 3 others, organizations running these solutions should prioritize assessment and patching.

Historical Context

First disclosed in 2019, this vulnerability was reported during a period defined by widespread IoT adoption challenges, mobile security concerns, and the emergence of advanced persistent threat (APT) techniques.

How SecUtils Interprets This CVE

SecUtils normalizes and enriches National Vulnerability Database (NVD) records by standardizing vendor and product identifiers, aggregating vulnerability metadata from both NVD and MITRE sources, and providing structured context for security teams. For huawei's affected products, we extract Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) data, Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) classifications, CVSS severity metrics, and reference data to enable rapid vulnerability prioritization and asset correlation. This record contains no exploit code, proof-of-concept instructions, or attack methodologies—only defensive intelligence necessary for patch management, risk assessment, and security operations.
